Please help Fletcher find a new forever home or rescue NOW before it is too late!!! His heartbroken owner is moving the end of the month and cannot take Fletcher! Please this is not the forum for any negative comments. There for but the grace of God could go any one of us!!! Fletcher is 4 years old, described as an indoor/outdoor dog.
Sight is not a dog’s primary sense so please do not let a dog being blind stop you for one second from adopting or rescuing! Anyone who has ever known a blind dog will tell you that once acclimated, which usually takes just a few days, you forget they have any eye issues at all and they are the same characters, the same loving dogs, if not more so, as all the rest! This sweet pup will be no different!!!
If you cannot take him yourself, please quickly share with all your contacts and post everywhere! Thank you!

This is fletcher. He's a Great Dane/Husky mix. He needs a good loving home. 4 years old.

LOLI
(A1682144)I am a female black brindle and white Terrier mix.
The shelter staff think I am about 8 years old.
I was found as a stray and I may be available for adoption on 03/01/2015.

We really do have the most amazing friends and partners around! Thanks to Jim, Dawn, and Bianca at Pampered Pets in Charlottesville, who donated a full groom for our two GDU "filthy" dogs, Reason and Theo-(Dorable). They look incredibly dashing and Beautiful, and feel DEVINE! If you are in the Charlottesville area and looking for a grooming Salon, please check them out at
